Elec-Trak Forklift Helping to Assemble a Clock in My Backyard89 viewsAs you can see, it didn't extend high enough so I used several pallet "cages" to be able to reach. (The post alone is 10' and weighs a little under 500 pounds: I rigged it and lifted it into place with the forklift without any problems) In the future I would change the steel wheels to air filled tires/casters. Unless the ground is hard and close to level, getting stuck is too easy.
